I would use a cleaner like Oxyclean.

You don't mention the fabric.

I have had some luck getting rust off of cotton with a white vinegar and salt rub. Lay the item on the washer or other clean surface....best if you have a white rag/towel under.

Make a paste with a tablespoon of salt and enough vinegar to make it like grainy frosting and use a clean old toothbrush to gently work it into the stain.

Test on a very small section first!!!!

It usually works.

If it is yarn or polyester, I have had no luck. It seems most successful on old linens. Especially if you sun dry it.

Never put the item in the dryer until the stain is totally gone.

I'd use salt and lemon juice and scrub in circles.
